Investment thesis
The firm invests in early-stage healthcare disruptors, drawing on Disruption Theory (per Clayton Christensen's The Innovator's Dilemma) which holds that new entrants succeed more often by targeting lower-cost, lower-performing or non-mainstream market tiers rather than competing head-on with incumbents. It views healthcare as ripe for disruption as decision power shifts from hospitals and doctors toward consumers and self-insured employers, creating opportunities to back young companies at lower valuations. The firm uses a proprietary big-data and computing system called MESE to screen hundreds of early-stage candidates daily and proactively source top targets, rather than relying only on inbound deal flow.
